Actually, it should have said "time and space"....
The toughest thing with an online pub, being freed of a press deadline is when to pull the trigger and publish. We often hold part of the issue till the last second so we can get something timely in.
Also, due to size/downloading issues for some, we have put a self imposed limit of 175 pages on the magazine, just so we can complete it!
With our current website being so much easier to add content, we're finding it much more convenient to post the six issues, (now going to seven this year and probably eight next year) and then add more reviews during the time between issues, to always give you something fresh to read at TONE!
It makes the music thing easier too, because new releases are always coming out. If you aren't a regular visitor, our goal is to have new content of some kind EVERY DAY by the first of the year. Other than the Beatles article for obvious reasons, the gear and music reviews on the website do not appear in the magazine. (Unlike the print guys who just put past printed reviews on their websites...)
Hope that helps! And thanks for reading....
